Dolly Parton wants Scarlett Johansson to play her in a movie of her life.

The '9 to 5' singer has reportedly been in talks with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes about producing the biopic and is keen for blonde beauty Scarlett to take on the lead role.

A source said: "Dolly is a huge fan of Scarlett and thinks she would be perfect for the role. She has approached Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes to see if they will produce the film.

"She's really excited about the project, and is determined to have the very best people in town working on it."

Meanwhile, Dolly recently joked her famous breasts will rise like mountains from her grave when she is dead and buried.

The 'I Will Always Love You' singer hopes fans visiting her final resting place will make pilgrimages by mule to the peaks of her mammary mounds.

Dolly said: "I can just see two big mountains growing up out of my grave, and people going around on mule rides to look at them. Throughout my whole career, I've been known for two things - I'm talking about my music and my lyrics!"
